- In this revealing film, Prince's Trust ambassador Tom Hardy and Kenny Ross (who was helped by The Trust) discuss addiction, alcohol and never giving up on your dreams. **Watch Kenny's message to his younger self here: • Video **
Never knew he struggled with alcoholism and addiction. Seems very humble.
I admire Tom hardy alot he has a big heart caring alot for people who are in need of help
i think the video is about this lad and his courage to overcome his problems not tom hardy
Mohamed Bou its just my opinion
True Londoner. His accent shifts three times in 3 minutes lol
Hardy is a very good man.
one of my favorite actors. It's cool to see he's a great person as well
Yes, indeed. And what a handsome, handsome man! ;)
Jason Ivea please come back on taboo in the united States, I love it, and you Tom hardy,!
He's that guy from D.Carpio's movie.. Inception.
I respect actors/actresses who are open and speak about their addiction. It's not only very brave, but thoughtful of them. People have such horrible opinions about addicts, especially those in the spotlight. It's nice to have people willing to educate.
Tom seems like such a great guy, he's so unconcerned with vain things and more concerned with making changes.
Tom is such a beautiful and inspiring human being...
dear lord his voice literally make me melt
Tom Hardy is a true human being. Making a significant name for himself with his talents, yet helping those rise up, those in need, sharing his own challenged experiences. What a human spirit!
he is honest. for sure, a man to look up too. he's so sweet, inspiring and just. admirable
Tom is jus so cool. He makes me feel even though i was an addict, its alright life doesnt have to end there. Clean up, and when you come out youll see what da world has to offer.
I was floored in his performance in lawless. How can this guy play such a different role from what he is in real life? This guy is top 5 best actors.
I agree hes definitely in my top 5 favorite actors, but besides his performances, its the fact that he was an addict prior and during his acting career, (Now for those of you who are addicts or were, you can understand how difficult it was for Hardy to pursue his dream while battling his addiction, and for those who never were addicts, i tip my hat to you, but its very difficult for those to understand what will power it took Hardy to not only rid himself of addiction but to push himself beyond to the point where his dream became a reality.) that i resonate with him a lot. I was always a dreamer, when my boys were getting union jobs in Queens (where i was born and raised) they would laugh at me or tease me for even thinking i can become an actor, one of my boys wanted to do it too but because of our environment he was discouraged, But like Hardy says "Never give up on your dreams" because even if they dont pan out, worse case scenario you/i end up like all my boys who are working for unions doing manual labor, n let me say manual labor will make you realize how good you had it n how bad life can be when you choose a wrong path. Thats why if I'm unable to be an actor, I'll just be a full-time dreamer lol until i break thru. Jeremy Renner, another guy in my top 5, he was the lead in National lampoons senior trip around the mid 90s, after that he couldn't book an audition for 20 YEARS, than he finally got that role in SWAT, than he did the Town, Hurt Locker than the Bourne Legacy, Avengers, American Hustle etc. Point being that he never gave up on his dream even if it took him the 20 years that it did, and with all the movie roles hes been killing, hes now a permanent fixture in Hollywood an A- list actor. So once again NEVER GIVE UP ON YOUR DREAM!
***** cheers to that
it's called 'acting' for a reason.
i loooove you ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
God bless you Tommy...
best actor in hollywood.
Unless your an addict it's very hard to understand, I've been clean for 2 years and people like Tom. Can make such a difference and his humility and honesty is admirable.
Fuck, I love Tom. He's just so inspirational and talented, he deserves way more recognition for his work!
Just a nice no bullshit guy.
Also well done to Kenny.
I give my respect to Kenny Ross and Tom Hardy!!
"Everest is obvious to climb, cause it's there, it's a mountain, personal Everests, you can't see them... that journey to the top of the mountain back down again is fraught with hazards, and no one can see it but you.."
Those words are very true. This guy's Everest was higher than mine, but he was just as interested nevertheless.
A stand up guy who came out on top. It was a pleasure.
So refreshing to see a BIG Action STAR down to earth. I got love for tom and his work. Sensitive person yet so strong.
Honest.
Rare.
Admire you tom to stay humble in an industry that can easily push you over the edge...your very grounded, love how you admit your fears not afraid to show your vulnerable side....all the makings of a leader takes a strong person to allow the world to see you as you are and as you were not easy
Hi, I'm seven years clean since I was able to wake up from the nightmare of addiction. I just wanted to tell you that you can do it. No matter how difficult it may seem to be, it is possible to come back to human life.
Wow,I never knew that about Tom H,what a legend.
At about 1:55 when the piano music kicks in in the background onwards is the best part of the video. Especially when Kenny asks "so what is your proudest moment then?" to which Tom replies "probably sitting here with you, mate" was heartwarming. Two ex addicts who've changed and done something constructive and inspiring with their lives, and when Tom says their 'personal Everests' which they had to climb themselves & no one else could see or knew what they were going through. It's a great video and great showcase of the human spirit and how powerful it is.
Tom Hardy is awesome.
Tom is my hero and inspiration
Such a humble and down to earth guy.
Emotional, honest, impactful and relatable. Bless both tom and kenny.
It's a rare combination when a person is good at his work as well as a person. Great actor and human being. Now I am even more proud of being his fan.
You can see Hardy is sincere in his eyes, but good for Kenny to. Its extremely difficult to overcome these chemicals that dig into our brain and body.
He's a great man
I love love love tom hardy. He is a brilliant actor and is always so convincingly menacing onscreen, but as himself, he has a very kind expression in his features. He's so firggin cute!
he's beautiful inside and out
He's really a great man , that's why I love him so much
absolutely in love with this man!
Millions of kudos and smooches to Tom Hardy for his courage in the spotlight and to Kenny Ross for seeing there is another way by being of service.
My favourite actor and a real person, nothing fake about him
Kudos to Tom Hardy for donating his time to do this video.
Respect to HRH PC for his vision, and his efforts, re the Prince's Trust. God bless, Sir, now and always.
Thanks for your example Tom! Unconditional love to you...
He has heart Mr Hardy. Proof that good guys, sometimes win.
Tom's an incredible actor and wonderful, inspiring human being! I love this guy so much! He's got a lot of guts to talk about his fears, just to help other people who are struggling with the same problem: BRAVO TOM!
What a top bloke !
Tom Hardy is a refreshing breath of air as far as celebrities go! The rest of Hollywood sorely needs a dose of humility. Too often, they become jaded while mired in their own world of self-importance. When something like People Magazine panders to celebrities, like an article calling some big star "The World's Greatest Dad" despite the fact that they're a first time parent at the age of 50, with a newborn. I think the public needs more exposure with celebrities who are humble. After all, they earn their exorbitantly outrageous salaries pretending to be someone else. Some of them even have the nerve to expect awards for their recognition.
Ive heard him say before that hes scared of everything and hes a big softie really and i just find it the most adorable thing because you would never expect it from an actor who gets cast primarily in tough, violent roles. Hes so precious.
This makes me admire him so much more! I will always be a huge fan of tom hardy :)
One day at a time
I wish I could meet this man so amazing, so inspiring, good actor, has the rapping skills...
I just saw the film Locke. I did not know Tom Hardy from Adam. He is absolutely amazing in this superb film. I thought for sure he was Welsh because he does a perfect Welsh accent in it. But that's just one amazing thing about the film. You must see it.
Down to earth guy legendary
I love him more than any of you will ever ever know x
♡ Tom.

Tom Hardy is an AMAZING & STRONG person. I have so much respect for him in so many ways!! Yes, absolutely, he is a WONDERFUL person to say the least!!
Absolute hero.
Never have I heard someone speak and say the things I would say to describe myself...scared of everything, an addict...and a bit wonky in the head...some days feel so heavy I struggle so much but seeing a video like this helps...I hope I can overcome myself and pursue my dreams...good luck to everyone else out there watching this video ;) x

I love tom Hardy's voice
Dude, he is a legend forever.
That's BANE man!!!
Oh Tom Hardy *heart emoji* I admire him a lot
Love The Drop. Hardy plays a real kind of guy. Knowing he's had real situations in life, I appreciate him more.
And I appreciate others, like Kenny Ross, who make a good journey after going through the chaos and strife and self-indulgence.
The afterlife is tricky. It takes many different types for the many different types, even though there are many similarities.
well done Kenny and good effort Tom. Respect for you both.
Tom is fucking awesome! A great actor and a genuinely good guy from what I've seen.
Tom Hardy is one of the few real actors and celebs in Hollywood.

Addiction is tough I admire anyone who can take it on and control it!
One of the best artist in the business
So much admiration for Tom Hardy 💞So Humble, Kind,Considerate 💕Absolute Gentleman💏What he's overcome to where he is now Nothing but Pure Respect ✨Best Actor Around 👌
The actors that always play the bad guys are always usually the good guys in real life.

Tom comes across as kind and empathetic. He has made no secret of his own drug and alcohol problems, who better to talk to addicts so they to can overcome their own demons and realize that they to can change their lives nothing is impossible.
Huge Inspiration.
I can truly relate to this video's subject. Seeing someone that beautiful inside and out going through issues and bringing light to the topic to help others is truly inspiring. Bless you, Tom.
Well done boys. Tom your a top man, a real inspiration to me and others who have lived on the dark side. Keep doing what ya doing Tom. Top class stuff. Good luck Kenny too. You've got my vote Tom. May the force be with you! That reminds me you'd make a great Sithlord in the new Star Wars movies.
